The town sits at the base of the steep scarp slopes of the North Downs, small watercourses rise along the scarp slopes where the chalk gives way to gault clay and drain towards the Medway. Snodland predominantly sits over gault clay, however to the south at Ham Hill the lower elevation exposes Folkestone Beds Sandstone. Legend Open water course Culverted water course Figure 2 Location of the watercourse in Snodland A small water course rises in Stalks Wood to the west of Snodland, the water course flows in an easterly direction and passes through the former quarry site on Paddlesworth Road forming a large online lake. The catchment upstream of the lake covers an area of 0.7km2 and is predominantly arable farmland. The lake is owned by Tarmac Cement and Lime Ltd and forms part of the Paddlesworth Lake complex. The lake covers approximately 9 hectares with both the inlet and outlet located at the southern end of the lake. As The watercourse leaves the lake via a small channel where it enters a culvert on TMBC owned open greenspace. The culverted watercourse follows the road network underneath Ritch Road and St Benedict Road, before becoming open water at Roberts Road adjacent to Snodland C of E School, here the channel turns sharply to the east before passing under Pridmore Road. The open watercourse continues to run parallel to Roberts Road before entering a culvert at Birling Road. 3 www.kent.gov.uk Photo 1 Inlet to the culvert at Paddlesworth Lake Photo 2 Inlet to the culvert at Birling Road (27/06/2019) (18/06/2019) The culvert follows the route of Birling Road to the junction of Rectory Avenue and from here follows a straight line to the junction of Chapel Road and Malling Road. The culvert continues in an easterly direction along Rocfort Road before turning South to follow the route of the footpath which runs to the rear of Rectory Close and Saltings Road. After 200 meters the culvert turns east for a further 240 meters before becoming open water to the rear of properties on Saltings Road adjacent to the A228. At the A228 the watercourse enters a culvert and flows south becoming open ditch at the Ham Hill sewage works and finally joining the Leybourne Stream within the Country Park. The catchment area for this water course covers a total of 2.1km2. Photo 4 Security screen on outlet of pipe at Saltings Way Photo 3 Open channel between Salting Road and the (18/06/2019) A228 (18/06/2019) The Leybourne Stream flows from the south of Snodland, travelling on the eastern side of the A228, it travels through Leybourne Lakes country park. Turning north within the country park the stream travels adjacent to the eastern side of the sewage works and Sortmill Road industrial estate before turning east and passing underneath the railway line and joining the River Medway. 4 www.kent.gov.uk During rainfall events, water that is not captured by surface water drainage will follow the topography and naturally drain towards the watercourse. The updated Flood Map for Surface Water (uFMfSW) shown in Figure 3 is published on the Environment Agency website, it shows the areas around the watercourse are at high risk of surface water flooding, it should be noted that lakes and ponds are shown in dark blue on the map. The uFMfSW map follows the route of the watercourse and the locations of flooded properties correspond to this area. The national surface water flooding provided by the Environment Agency on the gov.uk long term flood risk information map2 indicates these areas to be at a medium to high risk of surface water flooding. Medium and high risk means that these areas have a chance of flooding of greater than 1% and 3.3% in any one year respectively. Figure 3 Environment Agency surface water flood map Drainage System Details Snodland is a densely built up area with a high percentage of impermeable surfaces, private drainage, roofs and highways. The town is drained by a combination of mechanisms, the older parts of the town drain to combined sewers, which carry both foul and surface water, and discharge at the sewage treatment works at Ham Hill near Snodland. Newer parts of the town are served by dedicated surface water sewers which discharge to a local watercourse. The drainage in some parts of the town is based on soakaways, which collect surface water from a small area and allow it to infiltrate into the ground. Soakaways rely on the natural permeability of the underlying rock for the water to soak into. They are usually made by digging large manholes that are lined with perforated concrete rings or open jointed brickwork. The manhole provides storage for water as it seeps through the perforations in the chamber into the surrounding bedrock over a period of 24 to 48 hours, ready to accept a subsequent storm. Prolonged very heavy rainfall or multiple heavy rainfall events within a short period can overwhelm the storage available in these soakaways and result in surface water flooding occurring. Individual soakaways serve relatively small areas of between two and six road gullies. 2 The flood warning information service long term flood risk maps are publicly accessible by visiting https://flood- warning-information.service.gov.uk/long-term-flood-risk/map 5 www.kent.gov.uk Figure 4. Southern Water public sewers within Snodland The public sewers in Snodland are owned and maintained by Southern Water. The drainage assets on the public highway are owned and maintained by KCC as the Highway Authority, the highway generally drains to the public sewer network, in some areas it drains to soakaways or via dedicated highway sewers, which are owned by KCC. At Pout Road, St Katherines Lane, Roberts Road and Lakeside the highway run-off is managed by the highway drainage network. The areas around St Benedicts Road including Freelands Road to the west, Pridmore Road, the High Street and Holborough Road to the north and Saltings Road and Rectory Close to the east are of more recent construction and have separate surface water and foul water drainage. The surface water sewers discharge to the culverted watercourse which is located underneath the highway. The area around Malling Road including Recreational Avenue and Oxford Street is within the older area of the town and is drained almost exclusively by combined sewers.

  • 0 Medieval Flokestone Robertson
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society ( civ ) MEDIAEVAL FOLKESTONE. FOLKESTONE gives its name to one of the Hundreds of Kent, and was the site of a nunnery (said to have been the first in England), founded in the seventh century by Eadbald, King of Kent, the father of St. Eanswith, its first Abbess. These facts prove that the town was in earlier times a place of some importance, but very little is known respecting its history, prior to the Middle Ages. It is evident that the name, spelt Polcstane in the earlier records, was given by the Saxons,* and that it was derived from the natural peculiarities of the place, its stone quarries having always played a conspicuous part in its history. They are mentioned in two extents (or valuations) of the manor of " Folcstane" which were made in the reign, of Henry III. In the first of these, dated 1263, we read that "there are there certain quarries worth per annum-)- 20s." The second gives us further information; it is dated 1271, and says "the quarry J in which mill-stones and handmill- stones are dug " is worth 20s. per annum. Such peaceful and useful implements as mill-stones were, however, by no means the only produce of these quarries. When Edward III., and his son the Black Prince, were prosecuting their conquests in France, some of the implements of war were obtained from Folkestone. On Jan. the 9th, 1356,§ the King ordered the Warden of the Cinque Ports to send over to Calais|| those stones for warlike engines which had been prepared at Folkestone.

  • Landscape Assessment of Kent 2004
    CHILHAM: STOUR VALLEY Location map: CHILHAMCHARACTER AREA DESCRIPTION North of Bilting, the Stour Valley becomes increasingly enclosed. The rolling sides of the valley support large arable fields in the east, while sweeps of parkland belonging to Godmersham Park and Chilham Castle cover most of the western slopes. On either side of the valley, dense woodland dominate the skyline and a number of substantial shaws and plantations on the lower slopes reflect the importance of game cover in this area. On the valley bottom, the river is picked out in places by waterside alders and occasional willows. The railway line is obscured for much of its length by trees. STOUR VALLEY Chilham lies within the larger character area of the Stour Valley within the Kent Downs AONB. The Great Stour is the most easterly of the three rivers cutting through the Downs. Like the Darent and the Medway, it too provided an early access route into the heart of Kent and formed an ancient focus for settlement. Today the Stour Valley is highly valued for the quality of its landscape, especially by the considerable numbers of walkers who follow the Stour Valley Walk or the North Downs Way National Trail. Despite its proximity to both Canterbury and Ashford, the Stour Valley retains a strong rural identity. Enclosed by steep scarps on both sides, with dense woodlands on the upper slopes, the valley is dominated by intensively farmed arable fields interspersed by broad sweeps of mature parkland. Unusually, there are no electricity pylons cluttering the views across the valley. North of Bilting, the river flows through a narrow, pastoral floodplain, dotted with trees such as willow and alder and drained by small ditches.

  • HOLBOROUGH a Hill and a Hollow
    HOLBOROUGH A Hill and a Hollow Holborough is part of the parish of Snodland. In a charter purporting to date from 838 AD it is called Holanbeorge. The old English beorge denotes a hill or mound, especially a burial mound, while Hol correspondingly refers to a hollow. The hill, alas, is no more, having been quarried for its chalk in the fifty years or so from the 1920s to the 1970s. Rather more than 200 feet high and separate from the main range of the North Downs it was attractive to early inhabitants as a special place. At its summit they created a prehistoric ring ditch with a diameter of about 100 feet.1 It is thought that this ditch was perhaps part of the construction of a round barrow, which formerly incorporated a mound or bank. No trace of a burial was found at the centre of the circle, which may originally have been laid directly on to the chalk at ground level and have been dispersed later as the ground was ploughed and re-ploughed. Some bones found in the ditch may be human, suggesting that there was a secondary burial. The uppermost layers of the ditch contained various types of pottery fragments ranging from the Late Bronze Age (around 1000 BC) to Roman times.2 Confirmation that there were people living at Holborough so early came during an archaeological survey by the Canterbury Archaeological Trust in 2004-5, funded by Berkeley Homes prior to housing development, in a cornfield near the main road.3 A major round-house building was identified, and post holes elsewhere showed other circular, square and retangular structures.
